Chapter 80: Chapter 81 Care (1)
Qin Mobai’s voice was a bit hoarse, a typical sick person’s voice.
Lou Xi was originally a soft-hearted person, and as soon as she heard Qin Mobai’s voice, the step she had just taken stopped immediately.
The kind voice within her won without any surprise.
Putting down the bag in her hand, Lou Xi resignedly turned back towards the ward, saw the water cup on the table, and also noticed the water dispenser by the wall. The hot water was on, and Lou Xi went to fill the cup with water.
The hot water gushed down, and not long after, Lou Xi walked towards the sickbed with the cup.
However, the closer she got, the more she felt a bit uneasy, with Qin Mobai’s cold gaze fixed on her as though he was trying to see through her, making her heart feel like a small deer was running around inside.
She was also worried if there was something on her face, causing him to stare at her like that.
Never mind, never mind, Lou Xi went over and handed the cup of water to Qin Mobai, "Water."
Qin Mobai seemed to lower his eyes reluctantly, and although he was sitting on the bed, there wasn’t the slightest sense of inferiority, instead, there was a certain unexplainable aura pressing down on Lou Xi.
"Too hot," he said coldly.
Qin Mobai just glanced at the cup of water in front of him without any intention of taking it, directly refusing it.
Earlier, it was indeed directly filled with hot water, and she was worried about mixing hot water with cold, fearing Qin Mobai might get diarrhea if he drank it, so she only filled it with hot water.
"I’ll go change it." Lou Xi, considering Qin Mobai was her lifesaver, placed the hot water cup on the bedside cabinet and went to fill it with cold water again.
She still handed over the cup with a smile, after all, you can’t treat patients too poorly, right!
"Young Master Qin, this water is not too hot." Lou Xi had never served anyone like this before, Qin Mobai was definitely the first!
Qin Mobai coldly glanced at the water cup in front of him, and after half a second, said, "You want the patient to drink cold water?"
Lou Xi: "..."
Why does this feel more and more like a scene from those TV dramas where the evil second female lead makes things difficult for the poor first female lead? Qin Mobai is that evil second female, and she is the pitiful female protagonist.
"The water just now was too hot, now it’s too cold. Young Master Qin, what do you want?"
Lou Xi really hadn’t seen a man so hard to serve before, plus, why should she be serving Qin Mobai?
Listening to Lou Xi’s impatient tone, Qin Mobai’s sickly face showed no expression, his glazed eyes seemed to say: if you’re unwilling, then get lost!
Not waiting for Qin Mobai’s response, Lou Xi simply turned around and got another cup, then standing by Qin Mobai’s bedside, poured half of the previously heated water and half of the cold water into the new cup.
Having done all of that, Lou Xi then handed the cup to Qin Mobai.
"Young Master Qin, this is ’the golden ratio’ water, neither too hot nor too cold. Do you want me to take a sip to test the temperature before you drink?" Lou Xi put on a show of utmost respect.
But this respect actually made Qin Mobai’s temples twitch with annoyance, making him genuinely want to pin this little girl Lou Xi to the bed and give her a good lesson.
"Hot water mixed with cold, are you trying to kill me faster?" Qin Mobai looked up, his gaze meeting Lou Xi’s for the first time today.
Qin Mobai’s gaze was icy cold. With him looking at her like that, Lou Xi felt as if it were her fault that Qin Mobai was sick, inexplicably feeling guilty.
